Title: Method for producing cold-rolled bands or sheets
Inventor: ENGL BERNHARD
IPC: C21D9/46
Filed: 1999-09-06
Granted: 2002-07-04
Abstract: The present invention concerns a method for the production of cold-rolled bands or sheets from low-alloy steel with a maximum of 0.2% C, Al, Ti, V, Nb respectively and a maximum of 1% Si and Mn respectively, in addition to a portion of boron required for N binding (>0,78xN), the remainder being constituted by iron and unavoidable impurities, wherein said steel is cast after melting to slabs, thin slabs or a band, which are hot-rolled at a starting temperature above 1100° C. and at a final temperature below Ar3 and wherein the hot band is then drawn and cold-rolled at a temperature below 650° C., whereupon the cold band is annealed independently of the degree of cold-rolling at a low temperature that could possibly vary depending on the composition of the steel and ranging from 520 to 780° C. during a period of time that is sufficiently long to allow for complete recrystallization. The method disclosed makes it possible to simplify manufacturing and to lower production costs associated with the manufacture of a completely recrystallized cold-rolled band or sheet.

Title: Multivalent repressor of gene function
Inventor: BACHMAYER HELMUT
IPC: C12N15/49
Filed: 1994-07-20
Granted: 1997-05-29
Abstract: Transdominant repressors of viral gene phenotypic expression derived from the rev gene product of HIV-1 or the rex gene product of HTLV-1 and corresponding mutated genes are described', having the capability of repressing the Rev function in HIV-1 and/or the Rex function in HTLV-I and HTLV-II. Transient gene expression analysis of a series of missense and deletion mutants has been used. Some of the mutants found repress both the Rev and the Rex function and are thus active in more than one viral species. Transdominant viral mutants represent a promising new class of anti-viral agents. Cellular expression of these transdominant inhibitors may be used in such therapeutic approaches as intracellular immunization in order to protect cells against the deleterious effects of viral, e.g. HIV-1 infection.

Title: Hydrogel composites and superporous hydrogel composites having fast swelling, high mechanical strength, and superabsorbent properties
Inventor: PARK KINAM
IPC: A61L27/00
Filed: 1998-05-08
Granted: 2001-08-09
Abstract: A superporous hydrogel composite is formed by polymerizing one or more ethylenically-unsaturated monomers, and a multiolefinic crosslinking agent, in the presence of particles of a disintegrant and a blowing agent. The disintegrant, which rapidly absorbs water, serves to greatly increase the mechanical strength of the superporous hydrogel and significantly shorten the time required to absorb water and swell. Superporous hydrogel composites prepared by this method have an average pore size in the range of 10 mum to 3,000 mum. Preferred particles of disintegrant include natural and synthetic charged polymers, such as crosslinked sodium carboxymethylcellulose, crosslinked sodium starch glycolate, and crosslinked polyvinylpyrrolidone. The blowing agent is preferably a compound that releases gas bubbles upon acidification, such as NaHCO3. Improved hydrogel composites formed without a blowing agent are also provided.

Title: Automatic pinsetter
Inventor: DELANEY FRANCOIS
IPC: A63D5/08
Filed: 1994-06-17
Granted: 1997-03-13
Abstract: In an automatic pinsetter having an elevator mechanism for receiving bowling pins seriatim at a lower entrance portion from a pit area at a rear end of a bowling alley and for transporting the same upwardly for discharge at an upper end portion, a frutso-concial baffle is provided and is suspension mounted forwardly of the elevator mechanism and above a rearwardly moving conveyor. Fallen bowling pins in indiscriminate arrangement proceed rearwardly on the conveyor beneath a bridge which obstructs rearward ball movement and passes prone bowling pins only. Left and right hand guides cooperate with the baffle to define left and right hand entry passageways for the bowling pins in rearward movement to the entrance of the elevator mechanism. The passageways are insufficient in width to accommodate the side-ways passage of bowling pins. The baffle is also free to move in any direction over a limited degree of movement. The elevator mechanism receives bowling pins on forwardly open shelves with the bowling pins in a side-ways attitude and the shelves are equally adapted for the accommodation of bowling pins with their "butt" end portions disposed leftwardly or rightwardly.

Title: Alkaline leaching of galvanized steel scrap
IPC: C22B7/00
Filed: 1991-10-08
Granted: 1993-07-08
Abstract: Caustic dezincing galvanized steel scrap. A dezincing plant includes a plurality of tanks (14, 16, 18) interconnected in series with steel scrap sequentially being moved through each of the tanks. The tanks (14, 16, 18) contain a caustic leaching solution including an oxidant with the leaching solution being circulated through each of the tanks (14, 16, 18) in a direction opposite to the movement of the scrap. Fresh scrap initially is exposed to a partially depleted leaching solution with the oxidant concentration of the leaching solution increasing as the scrap moves through the series of tanks (14, 16, 18). Leaching solution depleted of its oxidant is transferred to an electrolytic cell (22) where zinc is removed and plated as metallic zinc powder onto a cathode. The leaching solution is recycled by removing zinc. The chemistry of the leaching solution is controlled so that sufficient free caustic is present to prevent passivating zinc coating on the scrap. Oxidant is added to the recycled solution and the caustic concentration is adjusted, if necessary, to have a total caustic concentration of at least 5 M and the recycled solution is returned to the last tank (18). Compressed scrap bales are dezinced and ready for use as a melting furnace charge material. <IMAGE>

Title: HF coil core with air gap - has ferrite end pieces with same cross-section as core to reduce magnetic leakage
IPC: H01F17/04
Filed: 1972-07-26
Abstract: The core of the h.f. coil exhibits an air gap, and is used in high-power transmission. Lesser heating is achieved by the reduction of stray fields leading to eddies using magnetically soft ferrite of the same cross-section as the coil core. The ferrites are fitted at the opposite ends of the air gap. The narrow ferrites (2a-2h) and (3a-3h) suppress the transverse component of the field and can be applied in strong fields with a permeability exceeding 100. In order to avoid shortening of the core lamination at the end of each section of the core, the section ends are treated with nitric acid and then varnished.
